A food shipper pushes a wood crate of cabbage heads (total mass `m=14 `kg) across a concrete floor with a constant horizontal force `vec(F)` of magnitude 40 N. In a straight-line displacement of magnitude `d=0.50`, the speed of the create decreases from `v_(0)=0.60 m//s` to `v=0.20 m//s`.
(b) What is the increase `DeltaE_(th)` in the thermal energy of hte crate and floor?
